Bagged a Chilton '100S' open Reel Machine with the posh Teak surround.£30.00 :eyebrows:
A hidden gem for the price is the Sansui SR-222 Turntable. Quite a few upgrade potentials. I am surprised it has not been snapped up at that price.
Mind you, the SR-717 listed here is a steal if it is working OK and can get it for peanuts. Highly underrated but a brilliant performer as I remember.

If I was going over that way soon I'd have snapped these up. They look quite pretty for £45 ovno.
Got to be a bit of a bargain if these went for £160.

The Ditton cross-over responds well to upgrades of the caps. I replaced them with higher voltage versions when Maplin sold non-polarized speaker caps.
It's just taken me 4 hours to get home from Ipswich, and the thought of going back that way make me want to swear a lot. Otherwise I'd be posting them as my new speakers.
'33's are mi fav's loike
Tempted to see what it would cost to ship them. Do I really need more teak in my house? And I should be looking for a new pre, not more speakers.
I could do with some more :eyebrows:
